Deutsche Bank upgraded Biogen (NASDAQ: BIIB) from Hold to Buy with a $129 price target, calling it the large cap biotech stock with the greatest opportunity for upside.

The firm cited: "1) Our analysis suggests CONFIRM will show BG-12 is more effective than Copaxone & DEFINE data will remain strong. Combo BG-12 & daclizumab Q3 data are under-appreciated. 2) We believe Tysabri will reach a positive inflection by YE:11 with most pts on drug being JCV negative in US. 3) Our due diligence suggests a greater likelihood of success for hemophilia trials in '12."
